Zero was a very accepting person in many ways.
But she truly couldn't accept this current situation.
"Wuwu... Onee-sama QAQ..." Rice Shower cried with a long face, wearing torn clothes.
"How is this possible... such a thing actually happened..." And Air Groove, on the side, also twitched slightly at the corner of her eye.
As for Zero... pupil earthquake.
Her gaze focused on Rice Shower's grown chest, comparable to Oguri Cap's, and one hand involuntarily stroked her own flat chest.
Oh, good, there was still some curve, a little better than Suzuka and McQueen's almost flat chests.
Yes, you guessed it, our adorable little ancestor Xiaomi has now become Dami.
As for why this happened... let's rewind time to ten minutes ago.
Since Zero had prepared many good things, Suko simply brought Chaza and moved the laboratory here. Not long ago, Suko had researched another strange medicine and called Zero over, saying there was a surprise.
"What kind of medicine is it this time = =" Zero held a test tube containing a potion.
"A potion that can make you more feminine, perhaps?" Air Groove's face wore her usual eerie smile.
"I feel like you're mocking me = =" Zero ignored Air Groove's teasing and placed the test tube on the shelf.
"What, are you scared to drink it?"
"Nothing, just preparing in advance, lest something like me shrinking happens again = ="
"Emmmm... you're right. Then I'll go make a cup of black tea. You can just handle the documents here."
"Alright." Saying so, the two left.
After the two left, a petite figure walked in.
"Onee-sama, Special Week-senpai has something... Eh? Where is she?" Rice Shower tilted her head.
The obedient Rice Shower naturally wouldn't mess with things in the laboratory, especially since these were Air Groove's potions.
Zero's appearance after drinking the potion in front of her was still fresh in her memory, so she wouldn't dare to touch them carelessly.
After a while, Zero, carrying documents, and Suko, carrying black tea, walked in together.
"Oh my, Rice Shower, do you want to try this potion too?" Suko joked.
"Hey = ="
"Hehe, just kidding. But I think everyone would be very willing to try a potion that makes them more feminine." Suko was pouring black tea from the teapot into a teacup.
"!" Rice Shower's ears perked up.
"I say, A Mi, you wouldn't be interested, would you?" Rei Zai naturally understood what Rice Shower's reaction meant.
"Uh… that…" Her small face was flushed, her ears were twitching, and her wavering eyes held a hint of excitement.
"Ha… Suko, are you sure there won't be any side effects?" Rei Zai glanced at Suko.
That guy, those words just now must have been said on purpose.
After all, for Uma Musume like them, whose physical development stopped at a small stature due to early 'honkakuka', the idea of "becoming more feminine" itself held great appeal.
"Of course, with my talent, that's impossible." Suko looked smug.
If I hadn't seen how Chaza pranked you last time and almost made you collapse, I almost would have believed her, Rei Zai rolled her eyes at the other party.
"Well, A Mi, you can drink it later and see. If there are any problems, I can help you here too."
"Eh? Really?" The temptation in her heart seemed to outweigh her fear of the unknown potion.
"Well, just in case, you don't have anything important later, do you?" At least if you drink it, I won't have to.
This Rei Zai is too despicable ( ).
In any case, after reaching a consensus with Suko, under the gaze of the two, Rice Shower nervously picked up the test tube, pulled out the stopper, and drank the potion inside.
Then Rice Shower's whole body began to glow with a rainbow of colors.
"Holy crap, Suko, what is this!?" Rei Zai, startled, blurted out a curse.
"Don't worry, this is a normal reaction, not that radioactive material." Suko had put on sunglasses at some point and was watching with interest.
But the light grew more and more dazzling, and even with sunglasses, Suko couldn't help but turn her head away like Rei Zai.
Screech
Hmm? What was that sound?
After a while, the light disappeared, and when the two turned their gaze back… the originally petite A Mi was gone, and in front of them was a sensually attractive A Mi with a superb figure.
Why sensual? Because her body grew larger but her clothes weren't affected, so… her clothes were torn and tattered, hanging loosely on her body, coupled with her slightly tearful eyes and pitiful expression… "This shouldn't be… it was supposed to make the subject exude a mature aura…" Suko's sunglasses slid down.
"Wuwu… QAQ"
"Alright, put on some clothes first…" Rei Zai went over and pulled off Air Groove's lab coat, handed it to Rice Shower, and then called Oguri Cap to bring her own clothes.
Although the exact size wasn't clear, she looked to be about the same size as Oguri Cap.
But for Rei Zai, the feeling now was a bit awful.
Rice Shower, who was originally even smaller than her, was now a big girl nearly 1.7 meters tall, and kept calling her Onee-sama… it was indescribably strange.
And… Rei Zai looked at Rice Shower's chest with a hint of resentment.
So this child had such great potential… "I re-analyzed it, this situation will probably last for about two days." Air Groove's eyes left the microscope.
"Eh!? But A Mi still has school…" Rice Shower looked a bit anxious.
"Well, I'll help you ask for a leave of absence. As for the lessons, Suko and I will explain them to you. Don't even think about running off = =" Rei Zai grabbed Air Groove, who was trying to sneak away.
"Cough, I think even just you can teach very well, I shouldn't be needed." Air Groove said with a serious face.
"No matter what, both of us are responsible. Don't try to escape. Chaza, you watch her for me these next few days and don't let her run off. Afterwards, I'll give you a can of Geisha coffee beans."
"No problem, leave it to me!"
"Ah!? Chaza!? When did you get back!?" Air Groove was somewhat shocked.
"Just now, I saw a strange light coming from here and rushed over." Chaza, on the other hand, was calm, but her current position completely blocked the door, foiling Air Groove's plan to find an opportunity to slip away.
"Anyway… stay here these next few days. I'll… hmm?" Rei Zai suddenly heard an alarm sound.
An alarm… why would I have an alarm here… Alice Digital!?
Rei Zai rushed to the guard room, finding quite a bit of blood already there, and a figure trembling, giving a thumbs up, and collapsing to the ground.
Alice Digital—!!! (Sad)
